One Direction to receive the Glee treament

They've already notched up a No.1 album in America - so it seems somewhat natural for the British boyband to land a coveted cover on the hit TV show.

The Sun quotes Matthew Morrison, who plays a teacher in the program, as saying that they will indeed cover the track on the show - but he'll have to take to YouTube first to practise the song. He said:

"I've just heard of them, they're really taking over the States. We are covering one of their songs on Glee - What Makes You Beautiful. I need to YouTube it to practise."

He added: "They've made it now though, they're on Glee! This will probably help their record sales too."
